This System Saves Hundreds of Thousands in Drug Costs

Hospitals can save hundreds of thousands in yearly pharmaceutical costs and help prevent drug diversion with the Cumulus System from Chronica Medical. Most facility leaders know which pharmaceuticals get delivered to the OR for each surgical case, but have no way of knowing what actually got used. OR personnel are supposed to count, but studies show that 3-8% of medications are never counted. The Cumulus System scans the drugs that are being thrown away. The system automatically reconciles the drugs delivered with the drugs used and produces customized reports. The labor savings alone totals close to $200,000. You also receive a solid record that could protect you in case of a legal issue. And the cabinet even securely stores "leftover" vials of controlled substances until they can be properly discarded. Cumulus can interface with your EMR, and be customized to meet your accounting needs.
